Tea or chai needs no introduction. This isn’t just a drink but an emotion for millions of people out there. Many of us have a morning ritual of starting the day with a cup of tea. We cannot do without tea due to many reasons. It helps in keeping the mind and the body cool and fuels us with energy to work for the rest of the day. Be it home or workplace, a cup of tea keeps us happy, and why not!
We Indians have a habit of inventing new dishes with the ingredients we love the most. And I don’t think, Indians love anything more than tea. Chai-biscuit is a staple snack we go for in the morning or evening or literally any time of the day. The feeling of having a biscuit dipped in a hot cup of tea followed by a sip of the tea, is beyond heaven. When we have nothing, we have chai biscuits. Whether it is guests coming or we are traveling, this is the easiest thing we can get literally anywhere.
